30436

30436 is a United States ZIP code used by the United States Postal Service to designate a geographic area in the state of Georgia. It is part of the 304xx range, which covers parts of southern Georgia, and it serves a rural portion of the region. The area designated by 30436 is characterized by dispersed residential parcels, farmland, and woodland, with few incorporated municipalities within its main boundaries.

In terms of postal service, the code is used for mail delivery and routing. Addresses within 30436 may be served by multiple local post offices or carrier routes, depending on the surrounding roadway network and postal infrastructure. As with many rural ZIP codes, the exact boundaries are defined for logistical purposes and may not align with town or county borders.

Demographic data for ZIP codes is not a precise measure of population or community characteristics. Population counts and socioeconomic statistics are typically compiled for ZIP Code Tabulation Areas (ZCTAs) by the Census Bureau, which can differ from the official ZIP code boundaries. Therefore, 30436 may share demographic traits with nearby rural areas but does not represent a discrete municipality.

Historically, ZIP codes were introduced in 1963 to improve mail routing and delivery. The designation 30436, like other codes, reflects ongoing adjustments to postal logistics as settlements grow and change. Today it functions primarily as a postal and geographic identifier for a rural Georgia area rather than a standalone political entity.
